Our Cold & Flu Service

Colds, flu, and other upper respiratory infections are some of the most common reasons patients visit a GP. At Mayfield Clinic in St John’s Wood, our experienced private GPs assess sore throats, runny noses, persistent coughs, fever, and related symptoms with care and efficiency. We offer same-day appointments, available in person or via video consult, so you can get back to feeling yourself sooner.

Our approach blends clinical expertise with personalised care. We conduct targeted assessments, provide evidence-based treatments, and offer practical advice to support symptom relief and recovery. If testing or vaccination is appropriate, our team can arrange this at your convenience, ensuring minimal disruption to your day.
